Wendwilsonite/Roselite

This miniature specimen features sharp, well-formed bladed to pointed lustrous gemmy-translucent crystals of both intense cerise-pink Roselite-Wendwilsonite (most specimens of this group of minerals are not tested analytically) and pale pink Cobaltoan Calcite. Both species form crystals up to 5 mm in length scattered upon a grey-black Goethite coated Calcite matrix. Some of the crystals do show some damage, but they form a colourful display and are rare, even from the Aghbar mine which is one of the best-known places for these species.
